Breaking waves modulate the transfer of energy, momentum, and mass between the ocean
and atmosphere, controlling processes critical to the climate system, from gas exchange of …

This paper reviews research in ocean engineering over the last 50+ years with the aim to (I)
understand the technological challenges and evolution in the field,(II) investigate whether …

Wind-generated ocean waves drive important coastal processes that determine flooding and
erosion. Ocean warming has been one factor affecting waves globally. Most studies have …

Future extreme sea levels (ESLs) and flood risk along European coasts will be strongly
impacted by global warming. Yet, comprehensive projections of ESL that include mean sea …

Studies of coastal vulnerability due to climate change tend to focus on the consequences of
sea level rise, rather than the complex coastal responses resulting from changes to the …

This article describes the first results obtained from the Surface Waves Investigation and
Monitoring (SWIM) instrument carried by the China France Oceanography Satellite …

A multi-scale global hindcast of ocean waves is presented that covers the years 1994–2012,
based on recently published parameterizations for wind sea and swell dissipation [Ardhuin …

A thirty one year wave hindcast (1979–2009) using NCEP's latest high resolution Climate
Forecast System Reanalysis (CFSR) wind and ice database has been developed and is …

Waves in large lakes put coastal communities and vessels under threat, and accurate wave
predictions are needed for early warnings. While physics-based numerical wave models …

Measurements collected during the AUSWEX field campaign, at Lake George (Australia),
resulted in new insights into the processes of wind wave interaction and whitecapping …
